The group stage is all but over and thanks to
some unexpected pitiful performances; many others and us have been crying out
for the dreamteam transfer window to open in hope of reclaiming some point
based pride.
The transfer window is open right this second and
you have until the 28th June to make 4 whole changes. We’ve never
been so grateful. Most of us will be shipping out our Spanish players and no
doubt looking in the direction of Neymar, but then again, won’t everyone?
You’re never going to win by following the crowd at this stage so perhaps a
little imagination and the odd wildcard could clinch it? Here’s which teams
made it through the group stages…
Group A
Brazil & Mexico
Group B
Holland & Chile
Group C
Colombia & Greece
Group D
Costa Rica & Uruguay
Group E
France & Switzerland
Group F
Argentina & Nigeria
Group G
Germany & USA
Group H
Belgium & (Yet to be decided with Algeria,
Russia and South Korea all with hope)
Mark Hyndman is currently topping our mini league
with 188 points, his inclusion of surprise point magnet, Columbias’ Rodriguez
alongside all the usual top scoring suspects gives him the edge over most
others. With all but two of his players confirmed for the knockout stage he’s
going to be hard to catch.
Tom Mann is sitting in 78th position
with 90 points mainly thanks to Robben and Messi. With over half his team
either knocked out or very soon to be, he’s certainly got some changes to make,
but with Ronaldo and his hefty price tag soon to be surplus to requirements Tom
has money to play with.
We aren’t too far behind Tom, in fact only 5
points separate us. Our not so trusty and pricey Spanish inclusions along with
our English player loyalties have certainly cost us big points but they leave
us with plenty of cash to make our changes.
JJ Bird sits 101st with 78 points,
without Benzema and Messi his leaky defence would see him far worse off. Aguero
sits amongst his strikers as a pricey pointless inclusion but he has 5 players
either out or soon to be. Decisions, decisions for JJ.
Derry Mensah and his ‘solid eleven’ have him in
114th place with 74 points. Suarez is easily his biggest point
scorer but with the nibbler facing punishment his team looks in trouble. The
transfer window has definitely come at the right time for Derry.
Dan Keatings is just a few points behind in 122nd
position. Without Robben and his whopping 31 points Dan would certainly be much
further down the mini league with most other players struggling to make much of
an impact.
Charlie Healy is only 7 points behind band mate
Derry, with Messi leading the way for the rest of his struggling line-up. He’s
going to need a bit of a miracle to storm up to that top spot he previously had
his eye on.
James Lock is having a bit of a nightmare sitting
in 164th position with just 46 points. His English and Spanish
midfield weren’t the craziest of picks but they’ve certainly let him and many
others down, but his strike force hasn’t done much to contribute points wise.
It’s a shame James can only make 4 changes.
With a mighty bundle of prizes up for grabs for
the winner this transfer window could make you or break you.
The prizes for the winner are…
The complete Calvin Klein world cup underwear
collection from Bang & Strike.
A prize from celeb and athlete favourite,
Musclefood.
A voucher for Machine Fitness.
A stylish and much in demand Curbbz bracelet.
A Diamond Whites home teeth whitening kit.
A tasty Hug Box.
If you’re hovering around that top spot and
looking like you’re in with a chance of winning please make yourself known to
us sooner rather than later so we know who to get in touch with at the end of
the World Cup. Tweet us @ItsBizNews with your name & Team Name.
